It probably should have been a beta, it’s based on IE so it’s not really new. It’s like a plug-in. It’s a great idea but far from the ultimate browser

I am right. Like I said I bought the app.

I just bought it for a goof. What a piece of garbage. First of all, you can’t even set your own homepage, no matter what is in the homepage setting, it goes to MSN.com. Second, it’s slow as crap on the Touch Cruise. Waste of money.

I have to agree with both of you guys. There are a number of good choices around for alternative browers (and more coming) - this won’t help Makayama at all, and I expect they’ll change this soon …

Well their DVD app was and is superior, so if this is up to their usual excellent deployment, I’ll bet it’s a winner. HOWEVER, yes, who in their right mind, with all the sudden alternatives popping up these days, is going to pay money up front to find out if they like it or if it will even work on your particular device? They have trials for all their other apps, hopefully this is an oversight and they will offer one.

Sadly, there’s no trial for this. You have to buy the full version to try it out.
